Flames Of War website update
Welcome to the Flames Of War and Battlefront Weekly Newsletter.
The fight over Minsk rages on in the staff Firestorm campaign! The Soviets have made a concerted effort for the Byelorussian capitol leaving the German players scrambling to establish a defensive line.
Also, Rich Hamilton wrote an informative article about the third and final initial assault at Bobruisk by the Red Army during Operation Bagration.
We also have several new products to spotlight for you all, including Strelkovy, Soviet machine-guns and German flame half-tracks. We also have moved up the Battlefield in a Box~Defenses from January to this month, so you can equip your Sturmgrenadiers with fortifications.
Finally, Rob Shirley has provided coverage of the last Rallypoint 34 event, the Hamilton Immortals’ annual historical tournament.
